Hamilton's Mercedes teammate, Nico Rosberg, started second and
finished in the same position. For much of the race, the Mercedes
duo spent the afternoon battling between themselves — with little
opposition from the rest of the pack. They finished the race
nearly half a lap ahead of the third place car of Valtteri
Bottas.

With victory at the historic Circuit Gilles Villeneuve, Hamilton
returned to the top of the podium after Rosberg reeled off
back-to-back wins in Spain and Monaco. The win also extends
Hamilton's lead over his teammate in the world championship
standings to 17 points.

The Formula One season continues in two weeks at the Austrian
Grand Prix.

IndyCar puts on a show in the Lone Star State.

Three-time IndyCar series champion Scott Dixon took his second victory of the
season over the weekend at the Texas Motor Speedway. The
affable New Zealand-native was followed across the finish line by
his Ganassi Racing teammate, Tony Kanaan. Polesitter Will Power
finished 13th and was not a threat to win for much of the race.

After suffering a series of high-profile high-speed crashes in
the run up to the Indy500 last month, the IndyCar series managed
to have a crash-free race at the notoriously fast 1.5
mile-long track. With an average speed of 191.94 mph, the race
was the fastest in track history.
